What monsters have not been released in C&C that still dwell in the original 3 Monster Manuals? I know that demons, devils, daemons, demodands, angels, modrons and archons are lacking, but what else?

Actually, a lot of demons and devils are contained in the "Monsters & Treasure of Airhde" book. I don't recall the others, though.

*Some might have been renamed, or I just missed it.
**Some of these are available in Third-party products.

Pretty impressive list.

Trolls, your next assignment has been posted above!

!!???

Those are about as "classic" as it gets.

This is too bad. Back in the 80's I turned this into a player character and the guy who played it had a blast.



As my mind can be faulty and I either made this up, in my own mind, or have a vague misunderstanding, but I think there was a book discussed that was going to only have planar monsters.

I wish they'd put out another Wyrm supplement though.

Some of those, especially TSR-created demons, cannot be used... at least not in the "obvious form."

Like someone said above, all the planar creatures, to include demons, devils, angels and archons, will be dealt with in another tome. Some of the monsters Peter listed just can't be redone, at least without WotC saying it is OK. And since they won't / didn't / we didn't ask, they aren't in the book. And a lot are just variations on a theme. Beetles, dinosaurs, dragons, et al. And I didn't do any "giant" creatures in the CM book (aside from giant humans, if you will). I thought it was a bit cheap to do "bat, giant" which is essentially adding a few HD to an already existing creature and upping it's damage. And lastly, Modrons are just plain stupid.

Kim

Personaly i am glad you omitted the dinosaurs and all the "giant" critters.
If i need a giant critter i add some HD , AC and up the damage of the existing creature.

The longer i gm the more i just give monsters the stats i want at the time of the fight.

Dont get me wrong i love monster books. Never have enough monster books.

Cool!

Yes, agree about Modrons.

May I recommend the Random Esoteric Creature Generator, if you have not yet heard of it. You sound like the kind of CK that would use such a tome.

Certainly. I do hope that when the planar books come out they'll have a series of modules out that involve these type of monsters.

I'd also like to see; Castellan's Guide to Arms & Armor expanded to sit beside other hard backs. Car Wars; Uncle Albert's Catalog From Hell supplement gave a big boost to the Car Wars game and just what Car Wars needed.

An expanded; Castellan's Guide to Arms & Armor could include weapons from different cultures, weapons of the near future (gun powder based weapons) a useful guide to equipment and maybe more concise rules for building castles. monasteries, cities etc. Building and populating these buildings/cities was a big part of OD&D that was just as important as gaining experience (Also boosts the popular Charisma dump stat into something more meaningful, on a grander scale.), I'd like to see that come back. Any recent fantasy setting really over-looks this area and is really is in the background (Except A Game of Thrones rpg.) The advantages of owning your own castle etc. plus having to manage them was a lot of fun. Your castles taxing of the serf's and general economic down turn means, We need to go adventuring to help boost the capability to fund your area of the world!

You don't need to have a degree in accounting (boring) to play this way. Just enough to get an idea how your area is going. Crop failures mean less $$$. Important NPC's are leaving for greener pastures, guards are not being paid and are leaving etc. Are there Orcs encroaching onto your land? Does this lead to a war? So, many possibilities that can be plot hooks for adventures.

I'm talking more about things that are on the surface as well as how you manage your area. Are you benevolent or rule with a iron fist, this helps you give the population a better understanding of how they view you as a ruler. Just a few bullet points that help with information about your area and important interaction with major NPC's that run your part of the world that help by giving advice. (Having your own personal smith's and maybe a Magic User, Cleric, on the pay-roll means you can have weapons, armour and items made and even enchanted without having to go out and find them. Need some +1 arrows, they can be made. I'm not talking major items but the smaller cheaper stuff. Unless you really want to spend the $$$, time and having to hire more experienced NPC's to make a major item and can use getting the materials for the item as an adventure.)

Redwulf, I have seen it. I was never much for random table roll up monsters. I just use my own fertile imagination.

Normally I agree - I'm in the same boat. But, the RECG is...different...somehow. Yes, it's just a series of random tables, but the end results are often unpredictably interesting and fun. Anyway, thought I'd throw it out there in case you hadn't heard of it.

I thought that the demons and devils listed in the 3.0/3.5 Monster Manual were open content. I know Paizo included most, if not all, of them in the first Pathfinder Bestiary.

I have a soft spot for modrons, personally, and plan on statting them out for my Shattered Coast blog, though I'm changing them to a living construct that wizards can create.

@redwulfe,

The REMG is amazing!

I also often restat monsters on the fly, and/or create them on the fly. But even my imagination didn't provide a giant elephant with transparent flesh so you can see its organs and bones, smells of tar, has a breathe weapon that removes a +1 off magical armor and that sprays blood that causes fire damage any time it's poked for more than 1 HP of damage!

My players were beside themselves with fear as they fought and eventually fled. After the combat they were like, "what the hell WAS that thing!?"

Thank you random esoteric monster generator!

Have anybody made a C&C version of these classic D&D monsters:

Mind Flayer
Beholder
Displacer Beast
Carrion Crawler
Umber Hulk

BTW: I agree! - Modrons are stupid!

I made a beholder. It really only takes a few minutes to convert any of those you listed to C&C.

I assume it's easier to convert monsters from d&d 3.5, rather than AD&D 1st. What source do you use?

I would like to see your C&C beholder stats if it's not to much trouble.
